The Ultimate Blog Party Has Begun!

Ultimate Blog Party That’s right folks, The Ultimate Blog Party has now begun and will be a week-long event lasting from now until March 14.

The Ultimate Blog Party is a great place for women bloggers to meet other women bloggers, so naturally, Woman Tribune wants a piece of the cake and in on the action! Last year party had almost 1,000 participators and just with the first day winding down, there are over 400 new blogs that I can’t wait to go through.

If you haven’t heard about The Ultimate Blog Party before, I strongly suggest you head on over and read all about it–You have until March 14 and then the party is over until next year.

party punch To get the party started I thought I would post a fabulous recipe for party punch because what’s a party without punch, right?

Prep Time: 20 minutes
Serves 40

You will need:

  • 3 (3 ounce) packages fruit flavored gelatin mix
  • 4 cups white sugar
  • 13 cups boiling water
  • 2 (46 fluid ounce) cans pineapple juice
  • 1 (16 ounce) bottle lemon juice concentrate
  • 2 (2 liter) bottles ginger ale, chilled

In a large bowl, combine gelatin and sugar. Stir in boiling water until mixture is dissolved. Stir in pineapple juice and lemon juice concentrate. Divide into 2 containers, and freeze until solid.

To serve, place gelatin mixture in punch bowl, and chop into pieces. Pour in ginger ale.

Hmm…I wonder what kind of alcoholic beverage would taste the best in here; and of course, multiple alcohol servings by two for each child that you have.

In addition to discovering countless women bloggers, by participating in The Ultimate Blog Party, you are also eligible to win prizes–and there are over 121 prizes to be given out! I know I have my eye on the KN Cool (R) Daywear from KN Karen Neuburger, the $25 gift certificate to Skin Care Girl and the Skin Care Kit from Hick Chicks Soap Barn. What can I say, I’m a sucker for cute, matching camisoles and panty sets and skin care products.

Have a great time partying! and of course, be sure to check back here frequently because we have a whole lot planned for this community including a link directory and topsite directory to link your website on and increase awareness to your blog–for free, because free advertising is indeed the best advertising and these programs are the few that work! I’ll also be back frequently with news and information on going green, stuff for pets, business, beauty and shopping!

    Whoa! This is a fabulicious idea to have fun and meet new friends!

  6. According to me these kind of socializing blogs are very helpful for the women. By visiting these blogs women can’t only learn new things but also can discuss their day to day problems.

  7. That punch sounds AWESOME!

    Hi Holly thanks for dropping by earlier. Pineapple juice, lemon juice and ginger ale. Nice!

  10. Cozmo says:

    “multiply alcohol servings by two for each child that you have” haha. I guess I need more kids because 2 servings won’t do it! I might have to try this at the next dinner party.
